My inspirations come from people, animals and nature in everyday life. I paint in oil and acrylic, emphasizing light and color. Whether it’s a portrait of a person or pet, a landscape, home or still life, I aim to capture the emotional appeal of the momen

My canvases and drawing papers are like arenas for me. The composition I leave on a canvas is a product of my performance. While I paint, I like to go about the act with as little calculation and analyzing as possible- let the piece become itself. Mostly

I am originally from Rhode Island and also lived in Boston where I worked as a graphic artist. I received an AA degree in art from Community College of RI although I am basically self-taught in my graphic and painting work. I enjoy painting animals and started off with cats. I won first prize in the Artist’s Magazine annual contest with a 30″x30″ painting of my former cat entitled “Calli Cat in the Tub”. I have branched out painting farm animals, cityscapes and still lifes. I have gallery representation at 1020 Art in Tallahassee. I enjoy painting “mini” paintings which are 2-1/2″ square and am doing sea life and selling them on the coast. I am currently painting with an expressionistic style, which I call my “Willy Nilly” style. 🙂

My painting style is based on techniques used by modern classical realists. However, my subjects are taken from the present-day, not the Neoclassical Period. I am interested in creating naturalistic images from everyday life with themes ranging from the landscape to the still-life to the figurative including portraiture. I work in oil, watercolor, egg tempera, and acrylic.
The subjects of my sculpture portray my long-term interests. To earn the money to support my art I have worked for many years in the arena of environmental sciences — principally water quality. Coupled with that pursuit has been a lifelong fascination with the fauna living in and around and also dependent on water. For the past several years, my sculptural work has focused on the waterbirds inhabiting Florida’s wetlands. My interest is in creating naturalistic impressions of those magnificent creatures. I work in mild and stainless steel, bronze, and copper.

My name is Danielle, I am an artist living and working in Tallahassee, Florida. I specialize in creating custom and original art work for you or your loved ones. I also offer art classes for both children and adults.
Creating is truly a spiritual experience for me. Every stroke of my brush, captures but a shadow of the passion in my heart. It brings me pure joy to touch others through the gift God has so graciously blessed me with. To make others ideas and desires become a tangible reality is my life’s calling.
Working in acrylics, colored pencil, watercolor and pen & ink, I pride myself on my realism and attention to detail in each and every painting. From pet portraits to landscapes, I take commissions in many different areas.

I started painting very late in life after 50 years pursuing a scientific career. My work is very realistic and from photographs, from travels, that are moving to me. The characteristics of a piece that I choose to paint would include a few of the followi

Born of an artistic family, I never thought I had the patience to paint and didn’t attempt it until 2011. Now I have patience for nothing else. I paint primarily landscapes from our own photos from our travels, but I enjoy other subjects as well.

I am a self-proclaimed “potter-for-life” that also likes to dabble in other mediums such as watercolor and printmaking. A majority of my artwork is inspired by nature and my surroundings and is sometimes laced with deeper meanings not always apparent to the viewer’s eye.

I have lived in the South Georgia/North Florida area my whole life and am a graduate of FSU School of Fine Art. I love experimenting with different styles from bright and colorful semi-realistic watercolors of horses to complete abstracts in oil. To me, t
